It should be located in %systemroot%\system32.  If cmd.exe is not in your
path, then it sounds like your path may be too long.  You might want to look
at it and see if there is anything you can get rid of, i.e. old programs
that you no longer use, and make sure that %systemroot% and
%systemroot%\system32 are in it.

It looks like the cmd.exe program isn't in your path - IIRC cmd.exe is
the windows 2000 equivelent of 'command.com' - the dos shell.  That
being said, I don't think I remember where it's located - good luck.
